More players seem to be falling down easier to Unfortunately that is what happens with the 5 minute major and Game Misconduct penalty. Players dive and act hurt to draw majors and it works way too often! I've seen players take way worse hits that deserved majors but if the player gets up quickly and doesn't act like he was shot more often than not it's called a minor. Players are rewarded for diving and acting hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players are rewarded for diving and acting hurt. Exactly. Last year (or year before) a Denver player acted like he was near death and the refs gave the Sioux the expected 5 minute major. The player hobbled back to the bench and then was out on the ice and scored on the 5 minute PP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players who lay on the ice and act hurt (or legitimately are hurt) should have to sit for a minimum 5 minutes of game time to undergo mandatory concussion testing. 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a touchy subject because sometimes it's more of a bruise....and after a few minutes you start feeling better. The pain is there but it's very short term. You can't punish that.

If your head/neck is "bruised" to the point where you were laying on the ice for a period of time, you should undergo an evaluation. It's not punishment, it's player safety. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHL obviously has more resources (funding) for those types of actions but in theory it should work better. I feel that has less to do with diving and more to do with the concussion lawsuits that will start occurring more and more. But it should deter a play to "act" more hurt than they are if they are trying to draw a penalty. Now this would only work for the high end players...lower end players would gladly sit for some time to get their team a PP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald joker Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Is making me nervous how everyone is talking about the playoff streak UND has, especially right now. Seems like every time a streak gets talked about that has to do with UND, it's broken. I'm fearing road games for the playoffs this season but I really hope not 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NCHC is much toughter than the CCHA (aka BTHC) and he is still well respected. He is the 2nd highest paid person at Miami U behind our football coach. (our Prez is 3rd). Missing the NCAAs stings but lets see how these 14 freshman do next season. I see us as WMU was last season (and who is now #6 in the nation). But yeah, Rico has no hot seat.
